IN VITRO EVALUATION OF ANTI-INFLAMMATORY ACTIVITY OF ETHANOL EXTRACT OF CRATEROSIPHON SCANDENS STEM BARK
Abstract
The study looked at how Craterosiphon scandens stem bark extract affected proteinase activity, heat-induced hemolysis, albumin denaturation, and calcium chloride-induced platelet aggregation in order to assess its potential anti-inflammatory properties in vitro. Utilising gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy, the bioactive components in the extract were found. The outcome shown that, in comparison to the control, various ethanol extract concentrations (31.25, 62.5, 125, and 250 mg/ml) and the common inflammatory medication (ibuprofen) effectively (p
